Life events, experiences and relationships can have an impact on how we feel within ourselves making it difficult to cope day to day. Therapy can help us understand these experiences, helping one gain insight and perspective. Finding understanding can be powerful in prompting change. I work with my client to identify issues within their life that may contribute to distress or problems.

I am BACP accredited Counsellor and Clinical supervisor. My core training is in the Integrative model, since qualifying I have completed further training in CBT, CfD, EMDR (all nhs approved) models. I take a flexible approach when working with clients adjusting my approach according to my clients needs. I aim to work in a collaborative way with clients as I believe this can help my clients feel safe and held.

I have vast experience of working within the NHS and charity sector, with clients presenting with common mental health conditions including depression, stress and anxiety. I specialise in working with clients who have suffered from trauma including childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence and issues relating to difference. 

Our initial sessions we will use to asses your current situation, consider contributing factors and explore goals and expectations for the work. I encourage my client to assess me for compatibility as its vital both therapist and client feel safe and comfortable in the working together. 

Please note EMDR session rates £100 assessment, £80 on going sessions

I am a BACP accredited therapist and clinical supervisor. I trained in the Integrative model in supervision which is also informed by a relational approach. My training in supervision includes working with counsellors/therapist and practitioners working in the helping profession. 

My model supports practitioners to explore experiential learning drawing from transference, intuition and clinical experience to help inform and enhance your clinical work.  I aim to create a learning and explorative space without the fear of judgment and shame. 

As professionals we can benefit greatly from supportive supervision and it should be available and accessible to people working in many forums not just the traditional clinical practice. 

I aim to create a supportive/reflective space for practitioners with a solution focused approach. I believe as clinicians as practitioners its important for us to have a safe space to explore the challenges and positives of the work we do.  

One to one sessions are usually 50/60 minutes long. I will offer an initial session for us to discuss your needs and expectations, from which we can explore the possibility to working together. 

I have experience of facilitating group supervision for therapist and practitioners in the helping profession.  

I offer online and face to face sessions.
